Table of Contents 5 Management’s Discussion and Analysis 152 Shareholder Information 76 Consolidated Financial Statements CHAIRMAN’S LETTER Dear Shareholders, The current presidential primary season in the United States has brought more than usual attention to the private equity industry and, of course, not all of it has been good. We can’t speak for the entire industry, but we’re very proud of what we do here at Onex. We are and have been active owners and builders of some of the world’s greatest companies. Our companies make products used by millions of people. When you go for a dental check-up, chances are good we’re helping with the diagnosis, when you fly off for a holiday – you’re probably in a plane we helped build, and when your children take the bus to school – the gears on the bus shift safely with one of our transmissions. We could go on and on. Even though we own many businesses, we don’t just put money in stock certificates. We’re not passive inves- tors or traders; that’s not our business. We are active owners working with talented and aligned leadership to turn a good company into a great one. Oftentimes when we buy a business, it’s been part of another, larger entity and didn’t get the capital or attention it deserved. With its management, we lay out a plan for improvement and growth (we’ve never seen fortunes made with shrinking businesses). When we feel that our work is completed and our ownership becomes more passive, we think about realizing on some of our value created. That’s what we do for you – our share- holders – and for our limited partners, who have asked us to manage about $9 billion, most of it coming from public employee pension plans. The hardest part of our work is selling a company we love. We have wide ranging debates on the topic and get views from the youngest investment professional and the most seasoned amongst us. This year we sold two great companies: Husky International and Emergency Medical Services, generating total proceeds of $2.7 billion and multiples of 2.9 and 7.8 times on invested capital, respectively. These were obviously great outcomes for the companies’ employee shareholders, Onex and our limited partners. We could have owned either business longer, but we felt that our role as an active owner was largely complete, hence the decision to sell. We wish both companies much continued success in the years to come. In addition to the two sales above, we had some other highlights through the course of the year: • We successfully completed the fundraising for ONCAP III, with capital commitments of C$800 million, including C$520 million from our Limited Partners; • ONCAP was very active in the mid-market private equity space, investing a total of $324 million in four operating companies across a variety of sectors; • Onex Partners’ and ONCAP’s private companies provided Onex with returns of 15 percent and 12 percent, respec- tively, in 2011; • Our businesses paid down approximately $1.3 billion of debt and distributed approximately $470 million; • Taking advantage of stronger capital markets in the first half of the year, Onex’ operating businesses raised or refinanced approximately $3.4 billion of debt; and • Onex and Onex Partners III invested $871 million and acquired a controlling interest in JELD-WEN, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of doors and windows. We’re looking forward to 2012. We have $1.3 billion of cash and cash-like investments and $2.5 billion of uncalled third-party capital. We hope to find our next great business, give it a capital structure suitable for growth and give its employees and leadership team an opportunity to participate with us in value creation. That’s our business, and we’re proud of it. On behalf of the Onex team and our 246,000 employees worldwide, thank you for your continued support. [signed] Gerald W. Schwartz Chairman & CEO, Onex Corporation Chairman & CEO, Onex Corporation Onex Corporation December 31, 2011 1 ONEX CORPORATION Over 27 Years of Success Founded in 1984, Onex is one of North America’s oldest and most successful private equity firms committed to acquiring and building high-quality businesses. As an active owner, the Company has built more than 70 busi- nesses, completing approximately 340 acquisitions with a total value of approximately $44 billion. Onex’ long-term project returns have generated a multiple of invested capital of 3.3 times from its core private equity activities since inception, resulting in a 29 percent compound IRR on realized, substantially realized and publicly traded invest- ments. The Company is guided by an ownership culture focused on achieving strong absolute growth, with an emphasis on capital preservation. With an experienced management team, significant financial resources and no debt at the parent company, Onex is well-positioned to continue to acquire and build businesses.

  • 2020 Annual Report CHAIRMAN’S LETTER
    2020 Annual Report CHAIRMAN’S LETTER Dear Shareholders, 2020 was a year like no other. Like most others, we did not see the COVID-19 pandemic coming. However, as a seasoned, long-term investor we have experience through many cycles and market disruptions. We know the value of patience and the importance of maintaining a strong balance sheet. Across our organization, we focus on building meaningful relationships, diving deep into the industries we cover and building a diversified investment portfolio. These are our core investing princi- ples, allowing us to continue investing and creating value no matter the environment, while ensuring we are never a forced seller. A year like 2020 highlighted the importance of our discipline. Each of our platforms executed on value creation strategies throughout the year. Overall, we grew Investing Capital per share by 18%, which is our strongest year of growth since 2013. We also increased Onex’ total assets under management by 14% to approximately $44 billion, including our acquisition of Falcon Investment Advisors (“Falcon”). We continue to have a strong balance sheet and are investing in our Asset and Wealth Management platforms to better position ourselves for sustainable earnings growth. Within our Private Equity platform, our team was active, even as in-person interactions temporarily ground to a halt. We invested a total of $2.5 billion in the year, of which nearly $670 million came from Onex. The most notable investments were Onex Partners V’s acquisition of OneDigital, a leading U.S. provider of employee benefits insurance brokerage and retirement consulting services, and the Fund’s add-on investment in Convex, our de novo specialty insurer and reinsurer focused on complex risks.

  • 2019 Annual Report CHAIRMAN’S LETTER
    2019 Annual Report CHAIRMAN’S LETTER Dear Shareholders, The year just past was an active and productive one for Onex. Our private equity platforms invested $2.7 billion. Of that amount, $1.1 billion came from our limited partners, about $470 million from Onex Corporation and $1.2 bil- lion from certain other investors. The most notable investments were the acquisition of WestJet, Canada’s second larg- est airline, and the launch of Convex, a specialty insurance provider being built with top industry entrepreneurs. The unusually high amount of capital from investors outside our funds stemmed from various motivations and highlights the strong partnerships we’ve built with our investors. We were even more active with private equity realizations, with the Onex Group total coming in at $3.7 billion – the second-largest amount in our history. Onex Corporation’s share was $1.2 billion. Contributing to the great year were the sales of Jack’s Family Restaurants and BrightSpring Health and secondary share sales of Clarivate Analytics and SIG Combibloc. Together with the increase in value of our unrealized investments, the gross value of Onex’ private equity investments climbed 21% in 2019. We also made an important strategic acquisition. In June, we acquired Gluskin Sheff + Associates Inc. (“Gluskin Sheff”), Canada’s pre-eminent wealth management firm. Our goal is to build a comprehensive wealth manager with institutional-calibre public and private market strategies, and best-in-class financial planning offerings tailored to sophisticated high net worth clients. Our new partners at Gluskin Sheff are just beginning to introduce their clients to the benefits of being part of the Onex family, but we’re already excited by the prospects.
